Important Safety Instructions

All electrical work must be performed by a licensed electrician and conform to all national, state,

and local codes. When installing and using this electrical equipment, basic safety precautions

should always be followed, including the following:

DANGER: To reduce the risk of injury, do not remove the suction ﬁttings of your spa or hot tub.

Never operate a spa or hot tub if the suction ﬁttings are broken or missing. Never replace a

suction ﬁtting with one rated less than the ﬂow rate marked on the equipment assembly.

WARNING: Prolonged immersion in hot water may induce hyperthermia. Hyperthermia occurs

when the internal temperature of the body reaches a level several degrees above the normal

body temperature of 98.6°F. The symptoms of hyperthermia include dizziness, fainting,

drowsiness, lethargy, and an increase in the internal temperature of the body. The effects of

hyperthermia include: 1) unawareness of impending danger; 2) failure to perceive heat; 3)

failure to recognize the need to exit spa; 4) physical inability to exit spa; 5) fetal damage in

pregnant women; 6) unconsciousness resulting in a danger of drowning.

WARNING: To Reduce the Risk of Injury —

• The water in a spa should never exceed 104°F (40°C). Water temperatures between 100°F

(38°C) and 104°F (40°C) are considered safe for a healthy adult. Lower water temperatures are

recommended for young children and when spa use exceeds 10 minutes.

• Since excessive water temperatures have a high potential for causing fetal damage during

the early months of pregnancy, pregnant or possibly pregnant women should limit spa water

temperatures to 100°F (38°C).

• Before entering a spa or hot tub, the user should measure the water temperature with an

accurate thermometer since the tolerance of water temperature-regulating devices varies.

• The use of alcohol, drugs, or medication before or during spa or hot tub use may lead to

unconsciousness with the possibility of drowning.

• Obese people and people with history of heart disease, low or high blood pressure,

circulatory system problems, or diabetes should consult a physician before using a spa.

• People using medication should consult a physician before using a spa or hot tub since some

medication may induce drowsiness while other medication may affect heart rate, blood

pressure, and circulation.

WARNING: Risk of electric shock – Install the control center at least ﬁve (5) feet (152.4cm)

from the inside wall of the pool and/or hot tub using non-metallic plumbing. Canadian

installations must be at least three (3) meters from the water.

WARNING: Failure to heed the following may result in permanent injury or death:

Risk of electric shock – Disconnect all AC power when insatalling or servicing this system.

Safety 3

• Children should not use spas or hot tubs without adult supervision.

• Do not use spas or hot tubs unless all suction guards are installed to prevent body and hair

entrapment.

• People using medications and/or having an adverse medical history should consult a

physician before using a spa or hot tub.

• People with infectious diseases should not use a spa or hot tub.

• To avoid injury, exercise care when entering or exiting the spa or hot tub.

• Do not use drugs or alcohol before or during the use of a spa or hot tub to avoid

unconsciousness and possible drowning

• Pregnant or possibly pregnant women should consult a physician before using a spa or hot

tub.

• Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be injurious to your health.

• Before entering a spa or hot tub measure the water temperature with an accurate

thermometer.

• Do nut use a spa or hot tub immediately following strenuous exercise.

• Prolonged immersion in a spa or hot tub may be injurious to your health.

• Do not permit any electric appliance (such as a light, telephone, radio, or television) within 5

feet (1.5m) of a spa or hot tub.

• The use of alcohol, drugs or medication can greatly increase the risk of fatal hyperthermia in

hot tubs and spas.

• Water temperature in excess of 100°F (38°C) may be hazardous to your health.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, connect the grounding terminal in the

metal enclosure to the grounding terminal of your electric service or supply panel with a

continuous copper conductor having green insulation and one that is equivalent in size to the

circuit conductors supplying this equipment. In addition, a second wire connector should be

bonded with a no. 8 AWG (4.115mm) copper wire to any metal ladders, water pipes, or other

metal within ﬁve (5) feet (1.52m) of the tub.

WARNING: A ground-fault circuit-interrupter must be provided if this device is used to control

underwater lighting ﬁxtures. The conductors on the load side of the ground-fault circuit-

interrupter shall not occupy conduit, boxes or enclosures containing other conductors unless

the additional conductors are also protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter. Refer to

local codes for complete details.

Additional Detail on Key Components

Handheld Controller (PPC-REM)

The main function of the Handheld Controller is to transmit user commands

to the PPC-CON Receiving Device and/or Z-Wave home control devices,

and to display the status of the installed equipment.

The unit ﬂoats if thrown in the pool or spa, is water-submersible, shock

resistant, and requires three (3) AA batteries. Expected battery life is about

one year in typical use.

When the components of a speciﬁc system are linked together into a

network, unique network ID codes supplied by the PPC-REM prevent

unauthorized use of the system by neighboring systems.

24-Volt Valve Actuator (PPC-ACT)

Designed with quality in mind, AutoPilot’s 24-volt valve actuators

provide reliable control of 2-way and 3-way diverter valves for pool/

spa combinations and water features. The water ﬂow can be altered

for speciﬁc applications through the adjustable cam, which rotates

diverter valves to multiple degree settings. The cam settings can be

easily adjusted by simply removing the lid. These valve actuators are

compatible with all pool/spa valves currently offered in the industry and

will retroﬁt into all pool/spa control systems.

• 24VAC Input Voltage

• Automates compatible diverter valves for

pool/spa combos

• Adjustable cam rotates diverter valves to

multiple degree settings

• Designed to operate most 2-way and 3-way diverter valves

• Shipping Weight - 3 lbs. (1.4 kg)

• Agency Approval - CSA/C-US

Water Temperature Sensor (PPC-WTR)

The AutoPilot Water Sensor (PPC-WTR) monitors both pool and spa water

temperature, depending on the position of the diverter valves. Installation is

necessary for the thermostatic control to work. The sensor can be ordered

separately.

Optional — Freeze (Air Temperature) Sensor (PPC-AIR)

Add the Freeze or Air Temperature Sensor (PPC-AIR) to installations where

below-freezing outdoor temperatures are a concern.

10 Commander PPC-CON - PPC-REM Installation Guide

24-Volt Valve/Pump Switch (PPC-ACTC)

Designed as part of the Commander system and for aftermarket

and retroﬁt applications, the PPC-ACTC unit snaps into almost any

Intermatic enclosure and controls the 24 volt supply for up to three

valve actuators. For this installation, if an enclosure must be added, we

recommend PPC-CASE.
